A plus size physique is no longer left out of the ever-changing world of fashion. Not so long ago
curvy women didn’t have the opportunity to shop from the same trendy selection as a more petite lady. Luckily
plus size clothing has taken a turn for the better. To that end
there are a few tips to help in the selection of the most figure flattering attire for your body type.

Tip # 1
Dark
solid colors are slimming. Any plus size gal will recognize that black is the ultimate color to help in minimizing those curves. In addition to classic black
navy blue can also help to instantly provide the look of a slimmer physique.

Tip # 2
Princess seams. These are ideal for plus size wear because of their slimming design. Princess seams are those that curve in
on both sides
to form a very lazy ‘C’ stitch.

Tip # 3
Long sleeves help to minimize the appearance of full-figured arms or wrists. It happens to all of us. One day we wake up and our arms are no longer the tight shape that they once were
but that is what long sleeves are for. The length will minimize a plus size wrist or forearm and draw attention to any unwanted thickness in either area.

Tip # 4
Shorts may show off plus size thighs or leg
but capris pants with an ankle bracelet will draw the eye to the ankle and will decrease any signs of a plus size presence.

Tip # 5
Most plus size ladies want to wear baggy clothes
but this doesn’t hide anything. Always go for a more figure flattering approach. This doesn’t mean to wear tight clothes
but it does mean to wear something that accentuates the figure in good taste.

Tip # 6
If you have love handles
don’t wear extremely a snug shirt with jeans as this may make the bulge a little more obvious. Instead
wear your favorite jeans with an a-line or flutter shirt. This will hide any problem areas and maximize your sense of style.

Tip # 7
Do not wear clothes that are overly tight. This is simply bad taste. Enough said.

Tip # 8
A monochromatic look
meaning clothing that is all one color
can give the wearer a taller and more slim appearance. And
after all
what woman wouldn’t want either of those characteristics in an outfit? Consider a black figure flattering top with a black pant in soft material. For a special touch
add a trendy belt
but take a look at the new you with an instantly slimmer look.

Tip # 9
A suntan will give a healthier and possibly even a slimming glow. A tan looks healthy and health is beautiful. Avoid the sun or a tanning bed
but check out a high quality self-tanning lotion instead.

Tip # 10
Control top pantyhose or a tummy control panty can help to eliminate belly bulge. Any woman
whether plus size or not
has a stomach. If you want to slim up your tummy area
either of these will help to minimize any bulge.
